Global capitalism: what's race got to do with it?

This article addresses the relationship between nationalist projects of sub ject making and capitalist political economy. Using the United States as an illustrative case, I suggest that the capitalist project of labor-force cr eation articulates with nationalist projects in the ethnoracial constructio n of workers and national subjects. Taking the situations of U.S. Jews and women as my main window, I propose that anthropologists should think of rac e as a relationship to the means of production and racial constructions of manhood and womanhood as the corporeal embodiments of that relationship.
